When the girls are in bed I watch BHG and Escape to the Country while having some chocolate and a nice cup of tea. It's a nice way to finish off the week. It sounds like we enjoy similar things. I hope you enjoyed your Friday night. xoCathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11314373295390794669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7828021706958060839.post-76492935166986076432010-10-13T08:56:32.735+08:002010-10-13T08:56:32.735+08:00Great post Amanda!

My friends and I often recall the days when we used to go out partying all night - now, I love nothing more than going home after work, having a home cooked meal, watching Better HOmes and Gardens (I have turned into my parents) and getting cosy on the couch with a glass of wine!

I call it 'my night' of shows... BHG / ESCAPE TO THE COUNTRY ( my favourite :) ) and yes... I whinge through most of 60 MINUTE MAKEOVER because of the dodgy workmanship as well, but can't help watching the show to see what the end result will be!!! <br />Hubby usually heads to bed after BHG and my teenage son often has a mate over, so they keep out of my hair doing there own thing. It's my favourite night of the week :)<br />Thanks for the peek into everyone else's evening as well :)Minhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13986624225424219367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7828021706958060839.post-50504522285310423662010-10-12T12:15:54.811+08:002010-10-12T12:15:54.811+08:00We're always quiet on Fridays now - it always ...We're always quiet on Fridays now - it always used to be a night out or a few drinks at home, but be Friday I'm exhausted and a quiet night in is just the ticket. <br /><br />Fridays are often a DVD and something easy for dinner. Sometimes as a treat, I feed the kids first and when Mike gets home I make beef carpaccio, which is super easy and takes hardly any time, and throw a couple of bottles of corona in the fridge.

What a gorgeous place.<br />We just unwind on a Friday night and my kids often have friends sleeping over. They play outside until it's too dark then come in and watch a movie. My daughter loves movie nights and makes us all tickets and shows us to our seats with a torch!

She's only two, but her parents, our friends, live only several houses down, so I figured that in case she cried or something I could take her home. Anyways, she's asleep and it's quiet now. I would love to start a family tradition for Friday night as well. I kind of like the idea of having pizzas in front of the TV and watch a movie with our kids or play a game as a family once our kids are old enough for it. For now, Friday night is a down time for me and my husband when I don't have to worry about making my older daughter get ready for school. Once school starts, weekday mornings are kind of crazy. At least for us.... Have a great weekend!Chuzai Livinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01095913641167115662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7828021706958060839.post-41045989803287211092010-10-08T22:37:26.590+08:002010-10-08T22:37:26.590+08:00LOL Amanda!

We love creating traditions with our kids, I think they create a real warmth and security for children and Friday night is one we all look forward to in our home.<br /><br />It is evolving as they get older but at the moment our routine usually involves homemade pizzas (including the dough) followed by games or a movie/dvd of the kids choice (or BH&G which my kids LOVE. Once they are in bed it's Escape to the Country and 60 minute makeover for hubby & me with a little magazine flicking/blog browsing. At the moment I have a 2004 copy of Family Circle beside me which I'm getting a few recipe ideas for the weekend from! Hope you, Paul & Grace have a lovely weekend!! xxxChristinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01026393386504178764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7828021706958060839.post-59635946001090973232010-10-08T22:05:07.456+08:002010-10-08T22:05:07.456+08:00I'm a quiet night in kind of girl.
